Semantic Git commit messages

Inspired by Sparkbox's awesome article on semantic commit messages.

What is this?

These are very simple custom git commands that enforce the git user to write better git commit messages. If still confused, read the article above.

Installation:

Install with Antigen: antigen bundle alexrochas/git-semantic-commits

Or if you feel like doing it the old-fashioned way:

mkdir -p ~/src
git clone git://github.com/alexrochas/git-semantic-commits.git ~/src/git-semantic-commits
print 'source ~/src/git-semantic-commits/git-semantic-commits.plugin.zsh' >> ~/.zshrc

Usage

There are 8 new Git commands now.
